20 ga Ultra Slug Hunter gets its first deer
« on: November 12, 2005, 12:44:59 PM »
Woo Hoo!  Deer season opened today in Indiana.  Shooting started at 6:57, and me and the USH had an 8 point on the ground at 7:30.  Shooting Rem Cor Lok and the range was about 50 yrds.  Deer was facing me at an angle, hit him just at the shoulder and exited about half way back on the other side.  He ran about 40 yrds and piled up.

Deer is about 150 lbs, rack is not big, but unusual.  3 points on one side, other side has 5.  5 side has 2 long brow tines and 1 U shaped tine along the main beam toward the top.  Plan on boiling out the skull, bleach and mount on some wild cherry that I have.

First shot at posting pic
If the Airdale will leave me alone I will get this posted.
Like I said, small rack, but the right side (in pic) shows the two brow tines and if you look toward the top you can see the hooked point.  You can't see the point directly on top.  Hey, not bad for the first day with a new gun...

Way to go, nice deer there. I just picked up a 20 ga. Ultra Slug. I wanted to get a gun for my stand hunting. My Remington 1100 is nice, but I want a gun that can get beat up and shoot well. Again Congrats.

Great lost OKIE I think I got his brother here in Oklahoma a couple of weeks ago during black powder season with a huntsman. Take your hook tine off & it is a duplicate maybe an inch or 2 shorter rack but same side with a double brow tine. Since it was the 1st deer I got while hunting with my 8 year old son. I too made a european mount worked good except for the fact that 5 mins before I was going to get it out of the pot my lab decided to do it for me & remove the nose bone but I bleached it anyway & it turned out good for me. It is my most memorable trophy, not the biggest but the best for me for sure. great job :wink:

One Hole, I know what you mean.  My son took his first deer in Louisiana several, well lets just say long time back.  He sure was happy...Now I am working with my granddaughter teaching her gun safety and how to shoot.

Where ya at in Oklahoma, I grew up in the Midwest City area and Wife is from Moore.  We get back every year so I can do a little work on her house and try to fish a little at Draper or Thunderbird.  I finally found a place to shoot last year, a range out toward Yukon.  Too hot in July to do much, plan on making it a early May in 06.
